RULES  FOR  THE  ADMISSION  OF  INSTITUTIONS  AND  FOR  THE 
GRANTING  OF  RETIRING  ALLOWANCES 

THE  act  of  incorporation,  passed   by  the  Congress  of  the  United  States,  and 
approved  by  the  President  on  March  10,  1906,  expresses  the  purpose  of  the 
Foundation  as  follows: 

Section  2.  That  the  objects  for  which  said  corporation  is  incorporated  shall  be — 

(a)  To  receive  and  maintain  a  fund  or  funds  and  apply  the  income  thereof  as 
follows : 

To  provide  retiring  pensions,  without  regard  to  race,  sex,  creed,  or  color,  for 
the  teachers  of  universities,  colleges,  and  technical  schools  in  the  United  States, 
the  Dominion  of  Canada,  and  Newfoundland,  who,  by  reason  of  long  and  meri- 
torious service,  or  by  reason  of  old  age,  disability,  or  other  sufficient  reason,  shall 
be  deemed  entitled  to  the  assistance  and  aid  of  this  corporation,  on  such  terms 
and  conditions,  however,  as  such  corporation  may  from  time  to  time  approve 
and  adopt :  Provided,  hozcevef\iT\\a.t  the  said  retiring  pensions  shall  be  paid  to 
such  teachers  only  as  are  or  have  been  connected  with  institutions  not  under 
control  of  a  sect  or  which  do  not  require  their  ti-ustees,  their  officers,  faculties,  or 
students  (or  a  majority  thereof)  to  belong  to  any  specified  sect,  and  which  do  not 
impose  any  theological  test  as  a  condition  of  entrance  therein  or  of  connection 
therewith.  ( 

(b)  In  general,  to  do  and  perform  all  things  necessary  to  encourage,  uphold, 
and  dignify  the  profession  of  the  teacher  and  the  cause  of  higher  education 
within  the  United  States,  the  Dominion  of  Canada,  and  Newfoundland  aforesaid, 
and  to  promote  the  objects  of  the  Foundation,  with  full  power,  however,  to  the 
trustees  hereinafter  appointed  and  their  successors  from  time  to  time  to  modify 
the  conditions  and  regulations  under  which  the  work  shall  be  carried  on,  so  as 
to  secure  the  application  of  the  funds  in  the  manner  best  adapted  to  the  con- 
ditions of  the  time:  Jnd provided.  That  such  corporation  may  by  a  vote  of  two- 
thirds  of  the  entire  number  of  trustees  enlarge  or  vary  the  purposes  herein  set 
forth,  provided  that  the  objects  of  the  corporation  shall  at  all  times  be  among 
the  foregoing  and  kindred  thereto. 

/ 

The  trustees,  on  May  7, 1908,  accepted  from  Mr.  Carnegie  an  additional  endow- 
ment for  the  purpose  of  extending  the  retiring  allowance  system  to  tax-supported 
institutions. 

The  executive  committee,  on  February  11, 1913,  with  the  approval  of  the  trustees, 
accepted  from  Mr.  Carnegie  an  additional  gift  for  the  independent  endowment  of  a 
Division  of  Educational  Enquiry. 

The  following  rules  have  been  adopted  by  the  trustees.  The  explanatory  matter 
in  fine  print  embodies  interpretations  of  the  rules  by  the  executive  committee. 


THE  ADMISSION  OF  INSTITUTIONS  TO 
THE  ASSOCIATED  LIST 

Institdtions  of  higher  learning,  including  colleges,  technical  schools,  and  universities, 
whose  work  is  clearly  of  college  or  university  grade,  may  be  admitted  to  participa- 
tion iif  the  benefits  of  the  retiring  allowance  system  sustained  by  the  Foundation. 

APPLICATIONS 

Applications  on  behalf  of  institutions  should  be  made  by  the  board  in  which  the 

government  of  the  institution  is  vested. 

ACADEMIC  STANDING 

In  order  to  be  admitted  to  the  retiring  allowance  system  of  the  Foundation,  the  es- 
sential work  of  an  institution  must  be  that  of  higher  education,  and  of  such  a  char- 
acter that  graduation  from  a  four-year  high  school  course,  or  equivalent  training,  is 
a  prerequisite  therefor. 

The  teiTn  "college"  is  used  to  designate,  in  the  United  States,  Canada,  and  New- 
foundland, institutions  varying  so  widely  in  requirements  for  admission,  standards 
of  instruction,  and  facilities  for  work,  that  for  the  purposes  of  this  Foundation  some 
arbitrary  definition  of  that  term  is  necessary.  The  following  definition,  in  force  in 
the  state  of  New  York,  will  be  employed : 

"An  institution  to  be  ranked  as  a  college  must  have  at  least  six  (6)  professors 
giving  their  entire  time  to  college  and  university  work,  a  course  of  four  full  years 
in  liberal  arts  and  sciences,  and  should  require  for  admission  not  less  than  the 
usual  four  years  of  academic  or  high  school  preparation,  or  its  equivalent,  in 
addition  to  the  pre-academic  or  grammar  school  studies." 

A  technical  school,  to  be  eligible,  must  have  entrance  and  graduation  requirements 
equivalent  to  those  of  the  college,  and  must  offer  courses  in  pure  and  applied  science 
of  equivalent  grade. 

No  institution  will  be  accepted  which  is  so  organized  that  stockholders  may  par- 
ticipate in  its  benefits. 

A  tax-supported  institution  must  be  in  receipt  of  an  annual  income  of  not  less 
than  one  hundred  thousand  dollars. 

An  institution  not  supported  by  taxation,  in  order  to  meet  the  requirement  in 
regard  to  endowment,  must  have  a  productive  endowment  of  not  less  than  two 
hundred  thousand  dollars  over  and  above  any  indebtedness  of  the  institution. 

The  executive  committee  has  ruled  that  institutions  in  other  countries  than  the  United  States, 
the  Dominion  of  Canada,  and  Newfoundland  are  not  eligible  to  participate  in  the  retiring  allow- 
ance system  (January  19,  1911);  that  institutions  whose  work  is  primarily  research,  and  not  teach- 
ing, are  not  eligible  to  participate  in  the  retiring  allowance  system  (September  15,  1909);  that  an 
institution  which  contains  a  small  college  of  good  standards  but  also  a  preparatory  school,  an  agri- 
cultural school,  or  an  elementary  music  school,  does  not  represent  with  sufficient  distinctness  and 
clarity  the  organization  and  conception  of  a  college  to  be  eligible  to  participate  in  the  retiring 


RULES  8 

allowance  system  (January  20,  1910);  and  that  until  the  financial  load  which  the  Foundation  has 
assumed  is  more  completely  known,  additions  to  the  number  of  associated  collea;es  will  be  made 
with  great  caution  (November  I'O,  1012). 

TAX-SUPPORTED  INSTITUTIONS 

III  the  case  of  tax-supported  institutions,  the  applications  must  be  accompanied  by 
the  approval  of  the  governor  and  of  the  legislature  of  the  state  or  province  in  which 
the  institution  is  situated.  The  trustees  of  the  Foundation  reserve  the  right  to  de- 
cline the  application  of  any  such  institution  if  it  is  subject  to  a  political  control  or 
interference  which,  in  the  opinion  of  the  trustees  of  the  Foundation,  impairs  its 
educational  efficiency. 

Tlie  executive  committee  has  ruled  that  the  Foundation  cannot,  in  lieu  of  the  application  of 
the  legislature,  accept  the  application  of  the  board  of  regents  of  a  state  university  even  when  by 
the  stiite  constitution  the  board  of  regents  is  independent  of  the  legislature  in  regard  to  the  ac- 
ceptance of  endowments  and  gifts  (June  4,  1909);  and  that  in  admitting  state  universities  con- 
taining colleges  of  agriculture,  these  latter  colleges  are  for  the  present  excluded  (June  4,  1909). 

UNDENOMINATIONAL  TEST 

Institutions  of  higher  learning  will  be  recognized  as  eligible  to  the  benefits  of  the 
Foundation,  so  far  as  denominational  control  is  involved,  under  the  following  con- 
ditions: 

1.  Colleges,  universities,  and  technical  schools  of  requisite  academic  grade,  not 
owned  or  controlled  by  a  religious  organization,  whose  acts  of  incorporation  or  char- 
ters specifically  provide  that  no  denominational  test  shall  be  applied  in  the  choice  of 
trustees,  officers,  or  teachers,  or  in  the  admission  of  students. 

2.  In  the  case  of  colleges,  universities,  and  technical  schools,  not  owned  or  con- 
trolled by  a  religious  organization,  in  which  no  specific  statement  concerning  de- 
nominational tests  is  made  in  the  charters  or  acts  of  incoi"poration,  the  trustees  of 
such  institutions  shall  be  asked  to  certify  by  a  resolution  to  the  trustees  of  the  Car- 
negie Foundation  for  the  Advancement  of  Teaching,  that,  notwithstanding  the  lack 
of  specific  prohibition  in  the  charter,  "no  denominational  test  will  be  imposed  in 
the  choice  of  trustees,  officers,  or  teachers,  or  in  the  admission  of  students,  nor  will 
denominational  tenets  or  doctrines  be  taught  to  the  students."  Upon  the  passage 
of  such  resolution  by  the  governing  bodies  of  such  institutions,  they  may  be  recog- 
nized as  entitled  to  the  benefits  of  the  Carnegie  Foundation  for  the  Advancement  of 
Teaching,  so  far  as  considerations  of  sectarian  control  are  concerned. 

The  executive  committee  has  ruled  that  the  Foundation  cannot  accept  the  waiver  by  a  denomi- 
national assembly  of  the  right  to  confirm  the  election  of  the  trustees  of  a  college  as  equivalent  to 
a  legal  abrogation  of  this  provision  in  a  college  charter  (November  12,  1908);  that  the  election 
of  the  members  of  a  board  of  trustees  by  several  constituencies,  one  of  which  is  a  denominational 
assembly  or  assemblies,  the  respective  number  of  the  trustees  elected  by  each  constituency,  and 
therefore  the  control  of  the  board,  to  be  determined  later  by  a  by-law  of  the  board,  is  a  plan 
for  collegiate  government  which  falls  within  the  prohibition  of  the  charter  of  the  Foundation 
(December  19,  1907);  that  tlie  appointment  of  the  trustees  of  a  college,  subject  to  confirmation 
by  the  hoard  of  education  of  a  denomination,  is  within  the  prohibition  of  the  charter  of  the  F'oun- 


4  RULES 

dation  (May  5,  1910);  that  the  endowment  of  a  professorship,  to  be  held  by  a  college  so  long  as 
its  president  and  a  majority  of  its  trustees  are  members  of,  or  in  doctrinal  sympatliy  with,  a  spe- 
cified denomination,  constitutes  such  a  college,  within  the  rules  of  the  Foundation,  a  sectarian 
institution  (June  21,  190(5);  that  application  to  the  P'oundation  for  admission  to  tlie  list  of  asso- 
ciated colleges,  and  the  passage  of  the  resolution  certifying  to  undenominational  status  as  required 
by  the  rules  of  the  Foundation,  create  a  relation  which  is  inconsistent  with  the  appearance  of  the 
name  of  the  institution  in  an  official  list  of  denominational  colleges  and  with  the  official  indorse- 
ment of  such  colleges  by  denominational  assemblies  (January  23, 1907);  that  when  the  name 
of  an  associated  college  appears  in  a  denominational  publication,  it  should  be  put  in  a  separate 
list  from  those  under  actual  denominational  control,  under  the  caption:  "The  following  institu- 
tions are  not  connected  with  the  .  .  .  Church  by  any  legal  ties,  nor  are  they  subject  to  its  con- 
trol" (March  28, 1907);  that  an  institution  which  appeals  to  a  denomination  for  support  on  the 
grounds  of  its  denominational  standing  is  ineligible  to  the  list  of  associated  colleges,  without 
regard  to  formal  denominational  status  (November  15,  190G) ;  that  a  proposed  college  charter 
which  would  read  :  "A  majority  of  the  faculty  must  be  members  of  Protestant  cliurches,  but  shall 
be  so  chosen  that  the  members  of  no  one  church  shall  have  a  majority,"  is  within  the  prohibition 
of  the  charter  of  the  Foundation  (April  9,  1908);  that  a  college  in  which  a  minority  of  the  trus- 
tees is  elected  by  denominational  assemblies,  if  conducted  free  from  denominational  partisanship, 
is  eligible  to  participate  in  the  retiring  allowance  system  (January  20,  1910);  and  that  the  pro- 
fessors in  the  divinity  school  of  an  associated  college,  which  is  declared  by  the  trustees  of  the 
college  to  be  primarily  designated  for  the  education  of  candidates  for  the  ministry  of  a  specified 
denomination,  are  not  eligible  to  the  privileges  of  the  retiring  allowance  system  (July  26,  1906). 

DISCONTINUANCE 

The  trustees  of  the  Carnegie  Foundation  for  the  Advancement  of  Teaching  reserve 
the  right  to  discontinue  the  privilege  of  participation  in  the  system  of  retiring 
allowances  of  the  Foundation  whenever,  in  the  judgment  of  the  trustees,  an  insti- 
tution ceases  to  conform  to  the  regulations  maintained  by  the  trustees.  Such  with- 
drawal shall  not,  however,  result  in  the  discontinuance  of  retiring  allowances  already 
granted. 

The  executive  committee  has  ruled  that  the  action  of  an  associated  college  in  passing  a  resolution 
that  future  elections  of  trustees  shall  be  presented  to  a  denominational  assembly  for  confirmation 
is  considered  as  a  notification  of  the  desire  of  the  college  to  sever  its  relation  with  the  Foundation 
(September  30,  1909). 

RULES  FOR  THE  GRANTING  OF  RETIRING  ALLOWANCES 
Retiring  allowances  are  granted  in  the  colleges,  universities,  and  technical  schools 
on  the  associated  list  of  the  Foundation  on  two  distinct  grounds :  (1)  to  a  teacher  of 
specified  service  on  reaching  the  age  of  sixty-five ;  (2)  to  a  teacher  after  twenty-five 
years  of  service  as  professor,  or  thirty  years  of  service  as  professor  and  instmctor,  in 
case  of  physical  disability. 

The  executive  committee  has  ruled  that  a  retiring  allowance  is  granted  under  the  rules  in  force 
at  the  date  of  granting,  and  an  allowance  is  not  increased  or  diminished  by  a  subsequent  change 
in  the  rules,  even  if  the  professor  does  not  actually  retire  until  after  such  change  (May  2,  1907). 
Thus,  professors  cannot  draw  allowances  upon  the  basis  of  the  abrogated  service  rule  of  the  Foun- 
dation, even  if  they  had  been  eligible  to  retire  under  the  rule  when  it  was  in  force  (June  9,  1910) ; 
and  that  if  the  grant  of  a  retiring  allowance  is  not  followed  within  a  reasonable  time  by  actual 
retirement,  the  allowance  must  come  before  the  executive  committee  as  a  new  application  (Octo- 
ber 8,  1907). 


RULES  5 

Rule  1.  Any  person  sixty-five  years  of  age  who  has  had  not  less  than  fifteen  years 
of  service  as  a  professor,  or  not  less  than  twenty-five  years  of  service  as  instructor  or 
as  instructor  and  professor,  and  who  is  at  the  time  a  professor  or  an  instructor  in  an 
associated  institution,  shall  be  entitled  to  an  annual  retiring  allowance  computed 
as  follows: 

(a)  For  an  active  pay  of  twelve  hundred  dollars'  or  less,  an  allowance  of  one  thou- 
sand dollars,  provided  no  retiring  allowance  shall  exceed  ninety  per  cent  of  the  active 

pay- 

(b)  For  an  active  pay  greater  than  twelve  hundred  dollars,  the  retiring  allowance 
shall  equal  one  thousand  dollars,  increased  by  fifty  dollai's  for  each  one  hundred 
dollars  of  active  pay  in  excess  of  twelve  hundred  dollars. 

(r)  No  retiring  allowance  shall  exceed  four  thousand  dollars.  . 

Retiring  allowances  based  upon  age  are  computed  by  the  formula:  R  =  — 4-400, 
where  R  =  annual  retiring  allowance  and  A  =  active  pay. 

Instructors  were  made  eligible  to  the  benefits  of  the  retiring  allowance  system  by  an  amendment 
adopted  by  the  trustees  on  November  18,  1908.  An  iiistructor  is  held  to  be  a  college  or  university 
teacher  to  whom  is  assigned  independent  teaching  or  responsibility  for  the  conduct  of  laboratory 
work  i>r  of  classes  under  the  direction  or  supervision  of  a  professor  or  head  of  a  department.  The 
term  is  not  intended  to  include  demonstrators,  mechanicians,  laboratory  helpers,  or  other  assistants 
who  are  not  charged  with  the  responsibility  for  the  conduct  of  college  classes,  nor  is  it  held  to 
include  those  who  give  any  considerable  part  of  their  time  to  gainful  occupations  other  than  col- 
lege teaching.  The  Foundation  reserves  the  right  to  decide  in  all  doubtful  cases  what  constitutes 
service  as  an  instructor. 

The  executive  committee  has  ruled  that  service  as  "emeritus  professor"  with  salary  may  be 
counted  (June  7,  1906);  and  that  a  demonstrator  in  a  technical  school  does  not  hold  a  title  repre- 
senting service  equivalent  to  that  of  a  permanent  instructor  (January  14, 1913). 

Rule  2.  Any  person  who  has  had  twenty-five  years  of  service  as  professor,  or 
thirty  years  of  service  as  instructor  and  professor,  and  who  is  at  the  time  either  a 
professor  or  an  instructor  in  an  associated  institution,  shall,  in  the  case  of  disability 
unfitting  him  for  the  work  of  a  teacher  as  proved  by  medical  examination,  be  entitled 
to  a  retiring  aDowance  computed  as  follows: 

(a)  For  an  active  pay  of  twelve  hundred  dollars  or  less,  a  retiring  allowance  of 
eight  hundred  dollars,  provided  that  no  retiring  allowance  shall  exceed  eighty  per  cent 
of  the  active  pay. 

(6)  For  an  active  pay  greater  than  twelve  hundred  dollars,  the  retiring  allowance 
shall  equal  eight  hundred  dollars,  increased  by  forty  dollars  for  each  one  hundred 
dollars  in  excess  of  twelve  hundred  dollars. 

(c)  For  each  additional  year  of  service  above  twenty-five  for  a  professor,  or  above 
thirty  for  an  instructor,  the  retiring  allowance  shall  be  increased  by  one  per  cent  of 
the  active  pay. 

(d)  No  retiring  allowance  shall  exceed  four  thousand  dollars. 


*  Originally  "sixteen:"  reduced  to  "  twelve  "  on  November  16, 1906. 


6  RULES 

Retiring  allowances  based  on  permanent  disability  are  computed  by  the  formula: 
R= (b+15)  +  320,  where  R  =  retiring  allowance,  A  =  active  pay,  and  b  =  num- 
ber of  years  of  service. 

The  executive  committee  has  ruled  that  a  professor  over  sixty-five  years  of  age  cannot  be  retired 
upon  an  allowance  according  to  this  rule  (June  9,  1910). 

The  executive  committee  has  ruled  (April  20,  1911)  that  the  policy  of  the  Foundation  is  to  grant 
temporary  disability  allowances  only  in  cases  of  disability  which  are  not  supposed  to  be  perma^ 
nent.On  October  31, 1912,  the  committee  voted  that  until  further  action  on  the  part  of  the  trustees, 
temporary  retiring  allowances  shall  not  be  granted. 

Rule  3.  A  widow  who  has  been  for  ten  years  the  wife  of  a  teacher,  who  at  the  time 
of  his  death  was  in  receipt  of  a  retiring  allowance,  or  who  at  the  time  of  his  death 
was  eligible  to  a  retiring  allowance  on  the  basis  of  age,  or  who  had  had  twenty-five 
years  of  service  as  a  professor,  or  thirty  years  of  service  as  an  instructor  and  professor, 
shall  receive  as  a  pension  one-half  of  the  retiring  allowance  to  which  her  husband 
was  entitled  under  Rule  1,  or  to  which  he  would  have  been  entitled  under  Rule  2  in 
case  of  disability. 

Tlie  provision  for  widows  was  merely  permissive  until  May  7,  1908,  when  the  trustees  made  it 
mandatory. 

Tlie  executive  committee  has  ruled  that  this  rule  does  not  apply  to  the  widows  of  the  recip- 
ients of  a  temporary  disability  allowance,  whose  service  as  a  professor  has  been  less  than  twenty- 
five  years  (December  19,  1907);  and  that  the  intention  of  the  rules  is  that  a  pension  to  a  widow 
shall  cease  upon  her  remarriage  (February  6, 1908). 

Rule  4.  In  addition  to  the  provision  for  retiring  allowances  made  in  Rules  1  and  2, 
the  Foundation  will  cooperate  with  institutions  on  the  associated  list  in  the  retirement 
of  teachers  who  have  had  twenty-five  years  of  service  as  professor,  or  thirty  years  of 
service  as  professor  and  instructor,  but  who,  not  being  sixty-five  years  of  age,  are  not 
eligible  for  retirement  under  Rule  1,  upon  the  following  basis: 

If  the  institution  grants  to  such  a  teacher  a  retiring  allowance  at  its  own  cost,  the 
Foundation  will  consider  such  teacher  eligible  to  a  retiring  allowance  on  reaching 
the  age  of  sixty-five  under  the  rules  in  force  at  that  time,  and  at  the  same  rate  which 
the  institution  has  paid  in  the  interval,  provided  the  retiring  allowance  so  paid  shall 
not  be  less  than  that  to  which  the  teacher  would  be  entitled  if  he  retired  under 
Rule  2  on  the  ground  of  disability,  and  provided  further  that  under  no  circum- 
stances will  the  Foundation  pay  a  higher  retiring  allowance  to  such  a  teacher  than 
that  to  which  he  would  have  been  entitled  had  he  remained  in  service  until  the  age 
of  sixty-five  and  retired  under  Rule  1.  Should  a  teacher  so  retired  by  an  institution 
die  before  reaching  the  age  of  sixty-five,  his  widow  would  be  eligible  under  the  rules 
to  receive  a  pension  from  the  Foundation  equal  to  one-half  of  that  which  her  hus- 
band had  been  receiving,  provided  that  under  no  circumstances  would  such  widow 
be  entitled  to  a  higher  allowance  than  that  which  she  would  have  received  had  her 
husband  been  retired  under  Rule  1  or  Rule  2. 

Rule  5.  In  the  preceding  rules,  years  of  leave  of  absence  are  to  be  counted  as  years 


RULES  7 

of  service,  but  not  exceeding  one  year  in  seven.  Librarians,  registrars,  recorders,  and 
administrative  officers  of  long  tenure  whose  salaries  may  be  classed  with  those  of 
professors  and  assistant  professors  are  considered  eligible  to  the  benefits  of  the  retiring 
allowance  system. 

Tlie  executive  committee  has  ruled  that  a  superintendent  of  buildings  is  not  eligible  (Janu- 
ary 23,  lyO") ;  that  assistant  treasurers,  assistjint  bursars,  superintendents  of  grounds,  and  chief 
engineers  are  not  eligible,  nor  the  holder  of  the  office  designated  as  "  head  of  a  house"  in  women's 
colleges  (January  20, 11)10) ;  that  assistant  lil)rarians,  occupying  scholarly  positions  similar  to  those 
of  assistant  professors,  are  eligible  (February  24,  l!)10);that  in  any  one  institution  not  more  than 
one  officer  in  the  treasurer's  department  can  be  eligible  (Jaimary  19,  1911) ;  that  a  physical  director 
of  a  college  or  university  is  not  eligible  unless  he  is  an  actual  member  of  the  faculty  and  a  teacher  of 
hygiene  (November  15,  1911);  and  that  the  position  of  secretary  to  the  president  of  a  college  or 
university  does  not  render  the  holder  eligible  (November  15,  1911). 

Rule  6.  Teachers  in  the  professional  departments  of  universities  whose  principal 
work  is  outside  the  profession  of  teaching  are  not  included. 

Rule  7.  The  benefits  of  the  Foundation  shall  not  be  available  to  those  whose  active 
service  ceased  before  April  16, 1905,  the  date  of  Mr.  Carnegie's  original  letter  to  the 
trustees. 

Tlie  executive  committee  has  ruled  that  it  cannot  waive  this  rule  (November  15,  1900),  and  that 
it  applies  in  the  case  of  a  professor  who  retired  from  active  service  before  April  16,  1905,  and  who 
resumed  teaching  temporarily  in  order  to  qualify  for  a  retiring  allowance  (October  8,  1907). 

Rule  8.  In  counting  years  of  service  toward  a  retiring  allowance  it  is  not  necessary 
that  the  entire  service  shall  have  been  given  in  institutions  upon  the  associated  list 
of  the  Foundation,  but  only  years  of  service  in  an  institution  of  higher  education 
will  be  accepted  as  an  equivalent. 

The  executive  committee  has  ruled  that  the  president  and  the  treasurer  (May  9,  1900)  and  the 
secretary  of  the  Carnegie  Foundation  (June  8,  1911)  are  within  the  privileges  of  the  retiring  al- 
lowance system ;  that  a  limited  period  of  service  spent  by  a  professor  of  an  associated  college  in 
the  American  Classical  School  at  Athens  (March  28,  100"),  the  School  of  Classical  Studies  at  Rome, 
the  American  School  in  Palestine,  the  Archaeological  Institute  of  America  (November  12,  1908), 
and  the  .\meriean  Academy  at  Rome  (April  29,  1913)  will  be  counted  in  reckoning  his  retiring 
allowance  ;  that  professors  who  may  go  from  a  college  or  university  to  engage  in  the  work  of  sci- 
entific research  under  the  Carnegie  Institution  of  Washington  may,  in  determining  their  retiring 
allowance,  count  years  spent  in  research,  whether  for  a  longer  or  shorter  time,  as  if  spent  in  the 
work  of  a  college  professor  (December  19,  1907);  but  that  this  privilege  cannot  be  extended  to 
those  who  begin  with  service  in  the  Carnegie  Institution  of  Washington,  and  later  transfer  to  the 
service  of  an  associated  college  (June  4,  1909)  ;  that  the  privileges  of  the  retiring  allowance  system 
cannot  be  continued  to  professors  who  go  for  a  limited  number  of  years  from  colleges  to  scientific 
service  under  the  United  States  government  (October  19,  1911) ;  and  that  service  as  the  principal 
of  an  academy  connected  with  an  associated  college  cannot  be  counted  (December  19,  1907). 

Rule  9.  In  reckoning  the  amount  of  the  retiring  allowance  the  average  salary  for 
the  last  five  years  of  active  service  shall  be  considered  the  active  pay.  In  case,  how- 
ever, a  professor  agrees  with  his  institution  to  continue  at  any  time  after  reaching  the 
age  of  sixty-five  part  time  work  for  a  diminished  salary,  he  may  do  so,  and  upon  his 
retirement  his  allowance  shall  be  computed  upon  the  basis  of  the  last  five  years  of 


8  RULES 

full  pay.  In  the  case  of  his  death  in  this  interval  the  pension  of  his  widow  shall  be 
reckoned  upon  the  same  basis. 

In  applying  the  rules  for  calculating  retiring  allowances  the  calculation  shall  be  made  to  the 
nearest  multiple  of  five  above  the  actual  value  given  by  the  rules  (June  7,  lOOfi). 

Allowances  remain  in  force  for  thirty  days  after  the  death  of  the  recipient  (January  20, 1910). 

Rule  10.  In  no  case  shall  any  allowance  be  paid  to  a  teacher  who  continues  to  give 
the  whole  or  a  part  of  his  time  to  administration  or  teaching  as  a  member  of  the 
instructing  staff  of  any  institution.  This  rule  does  not  prevent  the  retired  professor 
from  having  access  to  the  laboratories  of  his  institution,  or  from  accepting  compen- 
sation for  occasional  lectures;  but  it  does  not  permit  him  to  assume  stated  academic 
duties. 

The  executive  committee  has  ruled  that  a  retired  professor  cannot  draw  an  allowance  while 
acting  in  the  capacity  of  advisory  dean  of  a  college,  that  is,  supervising  the  installation  and  ar- 
rangements of  courses  and  the  selection  of  professors  (May  5,  1910);  and  that  a  retired  professor 
cannot  teach  in  the  summer  school  of  the  institution  with  which  he  was  connected  (April  20,  1910). 

Rule  11.  The  Carnegie  Foundation  for  the  Advancement  of  Teaching  retains  the 
power  to  alter  these  rules  in  such  manner  as  experience  may  indicate  as  desirable  for 
the  benefit  of  the  whole  body  of  teachers. 

RECOGNITION  OF  INDIVIDUAL  PROFESSORS  IN  INSTITUTIONS  NOT  ON 

THE  ASSOCIATED  LIST 
The  trustees  realize  that  there  are  able  and  devoted  teachers  rendering  admirable  ser- 
vice to  education  in  institutions  which,  owing  to  low  entrance  requirements,  or  for 
other  reasons,  are  considered  below  the  academic  grade  requisite  to  entitle  them  to 
a  place  on  the  associated  list  of  institutions.  Individual  professors  of  extraordinary 
merit  or  service  in  such  institutions  may  be  granted  retiring  allowances,  but  in  such 
cases  the  trustees  will  deal  with  the  individual  professor.  Such  allowances  cannot  in 
any  instance  be  granted  to  professors  in  institutions  deemed  to  be  under  denomi- 
national control.  Inasmuch  as  the  Carnegie  Foundation  for  the  Advancement  of 
Teaching  is  a  gift  to  higher  education,  service  in  a  high  school  or  academy  will  not 
entitle  a  teacher  to  a  retiring  allowance  from  this  Foundation. 

Tlie  executive  committee  has  ruled  that  upon  the  admission  of  an  institution  to  the  list  of  asso- 
ciated colleges,  the  amount  of  allowance  heretofore  granted  to  a  professor  in  that  institution  may 
be  increased  to  the  amount  fixed  by  the  rules  (April  9,  1908),  and  that  it  is  inexpedient  in  the 
future  to  grant  allowance  outside  of  the  associated  colleges  "except  in  cases  of  especial  signifi- 
cance in  institutions  whose  standards  are  so  advanced  that  within  a  short  time  the  institution  will 
be  ready  to  apply  for  admission  to  the  Foundation"  (May  5,  1910). 

These  rules  were  approved  at  the  annual  meeting  of  the  trustees  of  the  Carnegie 

Foundation  for  the  Advancement  of  Teaching  held  on  November  19,  1913. 

{Attest)     Charles  F.  Thwing, 

Secretary  of  the  Board  of  Trustees.
